Thanks for the Slipaway link. It led me to other good movies.

I’m struggling to find good movies recently as I only have Netflix and YouTube. But it helps to more reading, still a winner…

Yunishigawa onsen looks sensational and Tochigi seems like a different world to what I am used to....Shame that I couldn't "join in" based on the reasons already mentioned. Next trip maybe far away if on the cards but here is hoping.

Yes, completely different. I’m back in Tokyo today and here is spring like weather. There is a snow kingdom. Was snowing heavily in the morning.

That's a great walk, those onsen look lovely. Nikko is an interesting place to visit and has a nice feel to it. Good luck with the dry spell !

Very informative and engaging as usual... I am just back from my daily beach walk with the dog (she loves to swim) and guess what: no beer either. Dry February for me (till the 25th).

Nice swimming companion , good to have. Regarding beers, it is often habits or rituals we used to. I’m trying to change them …
